Please use real words when posting to the forums. Abbreviations such as "abt" in place of "about" only serve to make your posts more difficult to read and less likely to generate useful responses.

The syntax for that is correct. are you sure it can find a class "input-nobox" ? Post your css and please use code tags.

When using setAttribute, it is className not class.
